Alve-One® foaming solutions are based on a portfolio of ADCA-free chemical blowing agents that may be tailored to the needs of the thermoplastics, elastomers and PVC (rigid and flexible) producers. The solutions offer specific plastic's properties: insulation, strength, lightweight, cushioning, softness, appearance.

Aquivion® D83-06A is a perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomer dispersion that exhibits an Equivalent Weight (EW) of 830 g/eq. Polymer concentration is 6% percent. Solvent system is 20% water, 40% 1-propanol, and 40% 2-propanol. Aquivion® PFSA dispersions are based on the unique Short Side Chain copolymer of Tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and Sulfonyl Fluoride Vinyl Ether (SFVE) F2C=CF-O-CF2CF2-SO2F produced by Solvay. The PFSA ionomer dispersions contain its acid form (-SO3H) and are available in various solvent systems, EWs and concentrations. These dispersions can be used to produce PEM fuel cell electrodes and electrochemical cell electrodes, to manufacture or repair ion exchange membranes, to produce super-acid catalysts and, for the surface treatment of PTFE membranes, to improve wetting behavior.

AvaSpire® AV-621 is an unreinforced polyaryletherketone (PAEK) that offers improved ductility and impact strength relative to PEEK while retaining most of the key performance attributes of PEEK. The AV-621 grade is the low melt flow (higher molecular weight) analogue of the medium flow grade AvaSpire® AV-651 that is tailored primarily for injection molding applications as well as film extrusion. AvaSpire® AV-621 resin is suited for a variety of processing methods including compression molding, stock shape extrusion, as well as injection molding. AV-621 has been formulated for applications requiring a balance of chemical resistance and mechanical strength along with good part aesthetics, thereby bridging the performance gaps within the ultra polymers space. These and other properties make this resin well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, semiconductor, electronics, chemical processing, and other industries. AvaSpire® AV-621 is easily fabricated using conventional thermoplastic melt processing techniques and standard equipment. The resin has a uniform opaque appearance with a beige color similar to that of PEEK. - AvaSpire® AV-621 NT
